Catholic Young Men.

In 1855 DR.. Brownson, the great con-
troyersialist, penned these wisdom-la'
den words: THESE Catholic young
men who now feel that they have nc
nlace and find no outlet for their activ-
ity, are in the future the men who are
to take our places and carry on the
work committed to us. We must in
spire them with faith in the future aud
encourage them to live for it. Instead
of snubbing them for their inexperl-
ence, quizzing them for their zeal
dampening their hopes, pouring cold
water on their enthusiasm, brushing
the flower from their young hearts, OF
freezing up the we'll springs Of thei1
Young life, we must renew our own Life
and freshness in theirs, encourage them
with our confidence and sympathy
raise them up if they fall, soothe them
when they fall, and cheer them on
always to new and nobler efforts. Bea1
with them, tread lightly on their in
voluntary errors, forgive the ebullu-
tions of zeal not always according &c
knowledge, and they will not refuse tc
listen to the counsels of age and exper
ience. They will take advice and will
amply repay us by making themselves
felt in the country, by elevating the
standard of intelligence, raising the
tone Of moral feeling, and directing
public and private activity to just and
noble ends"
In his preface to the ''American Re
public" he says: II wish to exert an
influence on the future Of my country
FIR which have made, or rather, my
family have made, some sacrifices, and
which tenderly love. Now, l believe
that be who can exert the most inau-
ence on our Catholic population, es-
pecially in giving tone and direction to
our Catholic youth, will exert the most
influence in forming the character and
shaping the future destiny OF the

Catholic ever elected to the Senate,
Charles Carroll of Carrollton being the


Charles Carroll of Carrollton being the
FIRST.
Within a year of his marriage Col.
Lewis likewise entered the Catholic
Church; and some years afterwards
Mrs. Floyd and three of her sons took
the same step.
Mrs, Lewis influence led to the con-
version of John T. Matthew's, CLERK OF
the county court Of Wythe county-a
man widely known and highly esteemed
and respected-and that of his wife and
twelve out OF fifteen children. One Of
his daughters became a Sister OF st.
Joseph, and before she was twenty one
was made superioress of The Convent IN
Wheeling. The daughters Of Colonel
Harold Smyth entered the Church by
the same influence, and one Of them is
now sister of st. Joseph at Charles
ton, West Virginia.
In the year Of 1s42 Bishop WhaIen
and Father Ryder, S. j., paid Mrs,
Floyd a visit in Tazeville county
where she then lived and where Mrs.
Lewis was also a guest. They were,
of course, much interested, and the
Bishop determined to erect a church at
Wytheville.
This was done, the Protestants coz
tributing very literally toward its eroc-
ton. Another church was soon after
wards built at Tazewell Courthouse,
where Mr.. Johnston then resided, and
others at Bristol and Cupple Creek. In
1867 Bishop Whalen founded q convent
of the Visitation at Abingdon, and,
though there were not twenty Catholics
in ts.e county, it has mad great success,
The Sisters own the building and the
grounds are tree of debt.
Colonel Lewis removed from South
Carolina and settled at the swee.
Springs, then in Virginia, now in West
Virginia. That part Of the state was
very much in the condition already
described, but MRS. Lewis set to work
and succeeded in erecting a church
there, which now has a fair congregh--
tion.
Thus we may say with truth that the
conversion of Miss Floyd was the direct
cause Of that Of manytother persons and
OF the founding of five churches and
one convent. She died Oh the 18th day
of February, 1887, having given much
Of hex life to charity and good worka'
Both rich and poor found her always
ready to attend to their wants, and
more than once, not being able to reach
them otherwise, she walked in the
midst of winter several miles TO see the
sick.
In what estimation she was held can
he judged by the fact that many Protes-
tants believed that she had been canon
ized, not knowing, of course. that this
could not be done in her lifetime. From

Irish Industries.

A lost art has been revived in Dublin,
where it Was first practised, and its re-
vlyal, we trust, will be an incentive to
native industry and genius to add to the
numbers of skilled handicrafts in Ire
land. This is the celebrated Bossi
work, invented OF introduced by an
italian who went to Ireland in the lat
ter part of the last century, and who
refused to impart the secret Of this Pc
culiar work even to his own SONS. Its
reproduction has often teen attempted
with Indifferent success, until last year
Mr.. Phillipson, after three months
close study unrayelled the mystery,
discovered every peculiarly Of the work,
and made a chimney-piece, tabletop,
and altar centre, now to be seen at the
Man chester exhibition. In the beauti-
full Rede1nptorjst Convent at Drumcon-
dra, Dublin, a number of panels and
over eighty feet of cornice in lnlald
marble in what is now called Phillip
son-Bossi work are being constructed.
and are attracting the attention OF
those interested in church embellish-
ment. They were recently inspected
and much admired by Mgr. Persico and
Archbishop Walsh, and specimens have
been sent to the United States. 1t
gives US great pleasure to record this
successful development of Irish talent
and industry. Ireland is gaining in
this respect every day, and In short
time she will have a large foreign trade.

tLeaYe Her Out,

A foreign paper tells good story Of
clergyman of the Established Chr1rcE
who went to certain part of Irelana
to stamp out of the peoples minds the
evils Of ''Mariolatry;" and taxing "a
little boy, he asked him to repeat his
prayers for him. at once the boy be-
gan the Lords prayer" and then went
on to the "Hail Mary;;" but the prose-
lyter Immediately stopped him, saying,
excitedly: "Lea7e her out and never
On any account mention her again.

gin-hater he said: please, sir, here

THE IRISH PEOPLE.

THE IRISH PEOPLE.
A Change of Sentiment in America Re-
garding Them-Why This is So,
There has been marked change in
sentiment in regard to the Irish qnes-
tion in this country within She past two
or three years. The American people
are beginning to understa;ld what this
question means, and they are learning
more about the {riah and their rights
and wrongs than they eyer knew be-
fore. The English idea OF an
Irishman has been heretofore ac-
cepted as the only correct one.
He has been looked upon Us Ignorant,
Quarrelsome, and Of race with whom
it was impossible to live IN friendly
neighborliness. We now understand
that centuries OF grinding poverty aid
wrong have put their impress ppanLthe
Irishman's face aud character, and
have instilled into his nature thai stub
born combatiyeness which aloue has
prevented his being stamped o,2t ny the
long oppression that he has endured.
Without Irish pluck and co1nbative
ness where would the world be to-day!
The Irish reoElo have helped both
bravely and loyalty to WIN great VIC
tories for both England and France
and America. They helped man Brit
aims ships in the defeat Of the Great
Armada and at the battle Of Trafalgar.
They helped win England's victories
at Oudenarde, Malplsquet Salamanca,
Viterbo and Waterloo. The irish le-
gion in the French army helped to beat
the English at Fontenoy. Igishmen
were in the front rank at Bnans Vista
and Chapuitupec, at Chieanuga and
Gettysburg. They..are q Yirile, ssggres-
siye, tenacious, irrepzeasible, race in
war and in peace.
But the Irish make good citizens here,
under tho beniicent iniuence Of this
free and prosperous country. Iristmen
and tbeir children here arc found
among Our most energetic, prosperous
duu ISSptCtSti ClGlIGuS.
The notion that the Irish people are
lawless and disorderly is in a lage de-
gree erroneous. 4 comparison OF the
criminal records OF the English, Scotch,
Welsh and Irish is not unfavorable to
the latter. The StatesYlan's 7 ear Book
for 1887, san English publication, fun
ishes the following criminal statistics:
Committed Cen
England and Wales. 1889 1Q,5D
Re9saad Fss}and 2,s$5 5S9 I's2s sss
The population of the kingdoms that
year was estimated to be:--Ensland
and Wales, q, 400 .041; Scotland, 3,907,-
736; Ireland, 4,ol8. .33s. From thess
figures, it will be seea that the Irish
criminal record is better than that of
either England OF Scotland. The Irish
have also a greater respect for the mar
riage relation than have either the Eng
lish or the Scotch. In Scotland, in 1885
the average proportion of Legitimate
births was 8.5 per cent. Of the whole;
in England it was Al per cent, but III
Ireland it was but rs, the rate varying
from 90 in lCatholic;Connaught to 4.3 in
Protestant Ulster.
The Irish are much better than they
have been painted. They have been
maligned to the world. The fictlons in
regard to them are being dispeled by
investigation, It ONLY remains for them
to disproye one other ilIusion-that
they sre incapable Of governing them
selves. At the present rate of progress
they will soon have an opportunity to
prove that this too is an error.-Provi-

Lecture at Liberty Hall.

Samuel, p. Putnam delivered IN
Able 1setute at liberty Hall last
night, which was attentively listened
to by large audience. To report his
lecture would be like an attempt to
compress Mt. Hood into a nutshell.
His theme was Universal Human
Liberty" a great subject to which he
did full justice. He is a strong, for
chile speaker. of pleasing presence, hu-
ent language and expressive delivery.
He made many telling points, which
were heartily applauded. One quo
tation will give an illustration Of his
style, or the difference between Uni
versalists and Unitarians he said: "a
Uniyersalist believed God was too
good to damn man; Unitarian be-
lieved. man was too good to be
damned" In a peroration Of great
merit he made an earnest plea for the
freedom of human thought and urged
the organization of branch of the
American Secular Union to aid in
the accomplishment Of this task.

guished himself by his courage
and intrepidity. He was subse-
quently stationed at Fort Stevens

city where one of his sons now re-
sides. He was a man who was actu-
ated through life by high sense OF

THE tale told in the local columns OF
THE GAZETTE yesterday of the two Penn
sylvania boys who came to Fort Worth to
kill Indians illustrates the density OF the
ignorance prevailing in the north
as to Texas. These boys had
six shooters and bowie knives and
tomahawks. When arrested for carrying
arms they were dumbfounded; they could
not believe their own senses until the
cool shade of the calaboose hid them from
the sunshine and the numerous Co.
msnches. Poor boys; they are 600 miles
from the western boundary of Texas, and
there has not been an Indian between
this city and that western border for
many years, and ell along the route to
Ell Paso they will find law officers to ar
rest men for carrying deadly weapons or
for using abusive language calculated to
provoke breach of the peace.

100 Doses One Dollar

Z few years ago in the face of discourage
ments and opposition on the part of
some of the citizens, they nave gradually
developed g system not inferior to that
of any other city in the state. Though
busted with the building of railroads and
developing all the resources of the city,
the people were not forgetful of the bene-
fits of general system of education.
They recognized the fact thst it was
cheaper to educate all classes at public
expense than to allow horde of hood
lums to grow up and become public
pests. Much of the success in that line
is due to one Iarge-hearted public man,
the Hon. Peter Smith, who was, as we
have been informed, opposed to the levy
ing of school tax when it was first pro-
posed; but afterwards when he saw the
benefits of good school system, built
house with his own means, and donated
it to the city for school purposes. A
good public school is Indispensable to
the growth and prosperity of city, while
without one, its progress will be slow.

FRANKLIN J. MOSES, Ex-Governor OF
South Carolina, has been pardoned out
of the Massachusetts penitentiary to
which he was sentenced for three years
for forgery. The reason assigned by
Governor Ames was that Moses is in bad
heaIth and cannot live long. A better
one doubtless is that he will be needed
to make some speeches on the necessity
of reform for the Republican party in the
next campaign, and it would be incon-
venient to have to send to the peniten-
tiary for him.

made by the late land board with the Day

lease lands in Greer county sustains the

THE anti-prohibition newspapers are
giving the mob clearly to understand that
they are not advocates of Iawlessness and
ruffanism. Such newspapers as the San
Antonio Express and the Times, the
Austin Statesman and the Dallas Times
do not mince their condemnation of in
tolerance and the denial Of free speech,
and they do not propose to allow their
opposition to prohibition to be made
identical with cowsrdly rufianism by
silent contemplation of assault on free
speech and personal liberty.
